From there, the conversation widens into AI as a global arms race, China’s rapid progress despite chip restrictions, and why the GPU and RAM shortage is disrupting gaming, delaying consoles, and pushing the industry toward cloud and AI-first priorities.

1:47:20
Anthony and Joshua bounce across the biggest conversations happening right now, from the viral “aliens are real” moment and why that debate doesn’t change your day-to-day, to the Artemis missions and the new space race fueled by politics, money, and fear. They also get into wealth inequality and billionaire influence, then shift into the return of the Apple vs Android war, foldable phones, and why people are finally considering leaving iPhone behind. The episode wraps with a blunt reality check on privacy in a world of Ring cameras and constant surveillance, plus what it could mean now that OpenAI is bringing the creator of OpenClaw into the fold.
